Skipped September!

As the sun has already set on September, you might wonder what the Riley family has been up to, since we were clearly not blogging for your enjoyment. Heck, I might wonder if there is still anyone who checks this blog...



We have been up to a lot in September including painting our house.

We lost our tree in our front yard.... Our ash tree was taken away by the city forestry department because it had a crazy infestation they had not seen before. It's autopsy report revealed a carpenter moth- the tree was dead from the inside out.





Mommy has been crazy, providing craft projects galore. We made Gak.... I now know why it is called Gak- because whoever makes this fun little craft will look around their kitchen and say "GAK!" (for those of you unschooled in 1980's kids tv shows "gak" is a solid that turns liquid when it touches your hands)

We melted crayons for repurposing- fun but difficult.






And finally, we entertained the kids! Rebecca is quite the budding photographer- self portraits are her favorite!
